Description: Cape Provincial Museum, Albany Museum, Grahamstown, Natural History. Volume 13. Part 8. 18th July 1980. Stapled wraps, p.95-p106. illustrated, 184mm wide x 240mm high. New unread copy. Some aspects of the ethology of Dasyproctus Westermanni (Dahlbom) are described. Of particular note is the orientation of the pupae which appears governed by gravity rather than the position of the nest entrance. Foraging records are given for Dasyproctus Bipunctatus, D. Dubiosus, D. Immitis, D. Ruficaudis, & D. Westermanni. The ethology of the genus Dasyproctus is reviewed and discussed.
